Very nice Eric - I remember your car from the GenV meet, your tyres were looking oh so black & nice and shiny next my cars shitty faded black rubber (don't know why they've faded for some reason - now fixed with frequent use of Meguiars hot shine, yay).

Massive planned mod list you have there! :shock:

Looks good - hope your bank accounts up to the task, looks like a real nice list. :wink:

I think the G2M wheels would look better (but I'm biased, they look a bit like mine). :)

You can buy all your LED's off eBay for a fraction of the price and they will last just as long...

Thanks mate! The tyres were quite new, only had them on for a month or so before the meet, they've started to fade now due to my laziness haha.. The G2M wheels are nice, i've just posted those rims temporarily, but i might change to Weds or Works or whatever, im not definite on a choice at the moment, but when the time comes, hopefully i'll choose the right one! haha

All in due time! The mods will come!

Also, due to my limited knowledge at the time, Leo provided a great service and installed them for me and im happy to pay for that. Although i do like to fiddle around a lot, at the same time i tend to fuck up a lot haha, so i dont really want to fiddle around with a car that i need 24/7.

Just had Matt (KiDo) do a tune on the car yesterday. The car has transformed! Its no longer laggy and gluggly. Much more peppy and light, i didn't really see much of a difference during the run around La Perouse with Matt, but during my drive to work i could see where the tune had picked up where it used to lack during my usual route to work. Matt said he pushed around 15% in power and 20% in torque so approx 141kw and 274nm. Soooo much smoother to drive, i will report back on fuel efficiency starting from a full tank.

Definitely! Silky smooothh.. Just found the button that displays L/100km haha averaging around 10-9L/100km in peak hour traffic, from North Sydney to Inner west area. I can get it down to 9L/100km if i wanted to, but i have my heavy foot to blame haha.

Glad you're enjoying your new tune. Best of luck getting through the rest of your list! :-D Swaybar would be my vote for the next one.

Thanks! Yeah.. i might have to upgrade the front swaybars.. turn ins are a bit sloppy and feels like the car dives into every corner i turn.

Bought these, not sure if i should set them as brake lights or foggies (if thats even possible?). Also ordered headlight washer in preparation for a sports bumper! :D
